The adsorption kinetics of tungsten from acid leaching solution of scheelite was investigated. The effects of solution pH value (3.0–9.0), anion resin dosage (1–6 g), contact time (20–180 min) and reaction temperature (20–60 °C) on the tungsten adsorption were studied. The results showed that the tungsten adsorption was practically independent of reaction temperature at the investigated range, while increasing with the increases of resin dosage and contact time, and the decreases of solution pH value. The experimental data agreed quite well with the Langmuir model, with the maximum adsorption capacities of tungsten is 347.34 mg/g at 20 °C. In addition, SEM-EDS analysis further revealed that tungsten was well adsorbed by the anion resin.
